From presenting live<br />
performances and educational<br />
opportunities to preserving<br />
historic theatres and leading<br />
Minneapolis’ thriving downtown<br />
arts scene, <strong>Hennepin</strong> <strong>Theatre</strong><br />
Trust has become many things to<br />
many people.<br />
<strong>Our</strong> programs in 2007–08<br />
attracted nearly 500,000<br />
audience members! <strong>Our</strong> high<br />
quality education initiatives<br />
served thousands of Twin Citians, enabling <strong>Hennepin</strong> <strong>Theatre</strong> Trust<br />
to engage patrons of all ages and myriad interests.<br />
As proprietor of three stunningly restored theatres in downtown<br />
Minneapolis, the Trust also invested resources to ensure that these<br />
historic, architectural gems remain active, vital resources for<br />
our community. <strong>Our</strong> work continues to preserve these amazing<br />
facilities, each part of the foundation of our region’s own <strong>Theatre</strong><br />
Row or “Great White Way.” The State, Orpheum and Pantages<br />
remain vital to today's thriving Twin Cities’ cultural scene.<br />
In 2007–08, we proudly brought to the Twin Cities an<br />
extensive range of programs—from touring Broadway theatre<br />
<strong>Hennepin</strong> <strong>Theatre</strong> Trust, to<br />
borrow the proverbial story<br />
about the elephant explored by<br />
a group of blind men, has many<br />
different aspects depending on<br />
where you touch. This year, to<br />
enable us to further engage<br />
our community and increase<br />
understanding of the Trust, we<br />
developed a single message to<br />
succinctly and accurately convey<br />
who we are and what we do. The<br />
result: “<strong>Hennepin</strong> <strong>Theatre</strong> Trust, owner of the historic State,<br />
Orpheum and Pantages <strong>Theatre</strong>s, is a non-profit organization<br />
devoted to enriching the vibrant cultural atmosphere of the<br />
Twin Cities.”<br />
<strong>Hennepin</strong> <strong>Theatre</strong> Trust is a multi-faceted organization and<br />
we realize that in-depth understanding of the entirety of the<br />
Trust’s activities can be diluted by the numerous roles we fulfill in<br />
our community.<br />
productions to music, dance, comedy and premiere speakers in<br />
literature, photography and adventure. <strong>Our</strong> education initiatives<br />
inspired the next generation of artists and audiences, especially<br />
through our flagship SpotLight Musical <strong>Theatre</strong> Program for high<br />
schools. Additional students and families were served through<br />
programs including Critical View for student reviewers, Teen Ushers<br />
and free Ticket Access, as well as student matinees featuring<br />
National Geographic Live! adventurers.<br />
As a leader of the <strong>Hennepin</strong> <strong>Theatre</strong> <strong>District</strong>, the Trust initiated<br />
efforts to beautify and enhance <strong>Hennepin</strong> Avenue. Through our<br />
involvement in the launch of <strong>Hennepin</strong> Avenue’s own Minnesota<br />
Proud Walk of Fame, the Utility Art Box Program and partnerships with<br />
neighboring restaurants, hotels and sponsors, the Trust has created<br />
a more welcoming environment for theatregoers while generating<br />
business activity that positively impacts the economic vitality<br />
of the area. We are proud to serve our community in numerous<br />
ways and appreciate our patrons’ support which made these<br />
accomplishments possible.<br />

For example, the students in our SpotLight Musical <strong>Theatre</strong><br />
Program may be most familiar with the Trust as a supporter of<br />
their high school musical program. Broadway patrons might<br />
know the Trust primarily for first-rate touring productions<br />
such as Disney’s The Lion King or Avenue Q. Patrons attending<br />
our Literary Legends or National Geographic Live! Speakers’ Series<br />
may believe these presentations are our specialty, while fans of<br />
today’s music and comedy scenes look to the Trust for the best in<br />
live entertainment.<br />
At <strong>Hennepin</strong> <strong>Theatre</strong> Trust, we believe that it is these diverse<br />
components of our work that enable us to touch, engage and<br />
enrich our community. In this report, we invite you to learn more<br />
about the full range of the Trust’s activites and to embrace our<br />
refined message by spreading the word about <strong>Hennepin</strong> <strong>Theatre</strong><br />
Trust’s many contributions to the cultural vitality of our region.<br />

2007–08 EDuCATION HIGHLIGHTS<br />
<strong>Hennepin</strong> <strong>Theatre</strong> Trust’s programming<br />
and educational pursuits stimulate,<br />
challenge, entertain and inspire our<br />
community. This is apparent in our<br />
offerings to young people and especially<br />
in our distinctive flagship education<br />
initiative, the SpotLight Musical<br />
<strong>Theatre</strong> Program.<br />
4<br />
SpotLight Musical <strong>Theatre</strong> program<br />
This past year, SpotLight supported and celebrated students who<br />
participated in their annual high school musical. Often high school<br />
sports teams are showered with accolades, but SpotLight offers<br />
a broader range of students the chance for formal recognition.<br />
<strong>Hennepin</strong> <strong>Theatre</strong> Trust established the SpotLight Musical <strong>Theatre</strong><br />
Program after recognizing that none existed to honor excellence in<br />
high school musical theatre. The program utilizes theatre educators<br />
and professionals to attend high school performances and offer<br />
insight and instruction through critical feedback, workshops, a<br />
collaborative conference and awards ceremony.<br />
• In 2007–08, 25 schools and thousands of Twin Cities’ students<br />
participated in the SpotLight Program, receiving recognition and<br />
support from evaluators who provided valuable feedback to schools<br />
and free specialized workshops taught by local theatre artists.<br />
• The program’s culminating event was the SpotLight annual<br />
conference and awards ceremony at the Orpheum <strong>Theatre</strong> with<br />
more than 450 students performing selections from their own<br />
musicals and receiving awards. The awards recognize high school<br />
musical theatre accomplishments in much the same way the Tony<br />
Awards acknowledge Broadway excellence. The audience of almost<br />
2,000 people, nearly double from the previous year, was entranced<br />
by the wealth of talent on stage.<br />
• Minnetonka High School, a SpotLight participant since the program<br />
began, was honored for having the top musical theatre program in<br />
the state by Minnesota Monthly Magazine, which highlighted the<br />
school's SpotLight honors.<br />
• Minnesota native and Broadway actor<br />
Laura Osnes went from Eagan High<br />
School’s 2001 SpotLight-supported<br />
production of Fiddler on the<br />
Roof to earning a starring<br />
role in Grease on Broadway<br />
through the nationally<br />
televised contest.<br />

Broadway touring productions<br />
Minneapolis became the fi rst market to host Disney’s The Lion King<br />
for the third time, and our fi ve-week Minneapolis engagement reached<br />
nearly 100% capacity crowds. To celebrate the 10th anniversary of this<br />
phenomenonal show, the Trust collaborated with Disney to provide<br />
complimentary tickets to students at the Lincoln International Downtown<br />
High School. Many who attended were recent East African immigrants,<br />
who experienced their fi rst encounter with Broadway live theatre!<br />
Avenue Q – This production of the 2004 Tony Award Winner for Best<br />
Musical grew in popularity during its two-week run through lively<br />
word-of-mouth and innovative marketing efforts including some<br />
creative puppet art that was a huge hit on billboards. Generating<br />
many new fans among college students, the show tried to answer the<br />
time-worn question of “What do you do with a B.A. in English?”<br />
Jersey Boys – This 2006 Tony Award Winner for Best Musical is the<br />
hit song-punctuated story of Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons. The<br />
five-week Orpheum engagement was the talk of the town, with many<br />
patrons seeing the show multiple times. You couldn’t miss the buzz in<br />
the local media.<br />

<strong>Hennepin</strong> <strong>Theatre</strong> Trust continues to<br />
preserve, maintain and improve the<br />
State, Orpheum and Pantages <strong>Theatre</strong>s<br />
to ensure these venues operate<br />
smoothly into the future. Walking<br />
down <strong>Hennepin</strong> Avenue today, it’s hard<br />
to imagine it without the theatres’<br />
glowing marquees, but in the 1970s<br />
and 1980s, these buildings were either<br />
shuttered or operating sporadically.<br />
Today, only four of more than 30 original historic theatres in<br />
Minneapolis exist. Initially part of downtown’s active “<strong>Theatre</strong> Row,”<br />
the State, Orpheum and Pantages are inextricably linked to the past,<br />
present and future vitality of the region and <strong>Hennepin</strong> <strong>Theatre</strong> Trust is<br />
proud to be steward for these prestigious venues.<br />
In 2007–08, we implemented the first phase of our capital<br />
improvement schedule, overseeing nearly $1.5 million to upgrade<br />
the Orpheum <strong>Theatre</strong> lobby by making the beverage service stations<br />
more efficient and adding flat screen televisions (courtesy of Toshiba).<br />
To increase the comfort of theatergoers, lighting, heating and air<br />
conditioning systems were improved, seats were repaired, restrooms<br />
remodeled, stage floors resurfaced and the marquee rewired.<br />
As anyone who has ever restored an old, yet cherished, treasure<br />
knows, it takes more than a little elbow grease to complete the<br />
job. We thank our supporters for their dedication to preserving our<br />
historic theatres.
“The programming that <strong>Hennepin</strong> <strong>Theatre</strong> Trust does is incredibly beneficial. They are both a <strong>Theatre</strong> <strong>District</strong><br />
neighbor as well as a great partner for our restaurant. When these theatres are actively programmed, they<br />
increase foot traffic and contribute to the overall vitality of downtown Minneapolis.”<br />

Downtown Partners. In addition to <strong>Hennepin</strong> <strong>Theatre</strong> Trust’s core<br />
presenting and preservation activities, the Trust works closely with<br />
premier Minneapolis hotels and restaurants to enhance the experience<br />
of our patrons. <strong>Our</strong> partnerships, key in making the <strong>Hennepin</strong> <strong>Theatre</strong><br />
<strong>District</strong> an exciting and inviting destination, grew substantially as<br />
the interest in better serving visitors to the area reached an all-time<br />
high. Local restaurant partners include Bellanotte, The Capital Grille,<br />
Chambers, Cosmos, Manhattan’s, Mission, Palomino, Seven The<br />
Steakhouse and Solera. Hotel partners include The Grand, Graves 601<br />
and the Marquette.<br />
The Minnesota Proud Walk of Fame, honoring Minnesota celebrities<br />
in the film and entertainment industry, was launched in 2007–08<br />
with the Trust’s support. Stars to be imbedded in the <strong>Hennepin</strong><br />
Avenue sidewalk were presented to Marion Ross of “Happy Days,”<br />
Tippi Hedren of Hitchcock’s “The Birds” and Loni Anderson of<br />
“WKRP in Cincinnati,” with ongoing plans to honor many more<br />
talented Minnesotans.<br />
The Utility Art Box Program was among the projects led by the<br />
Trust to make <strong>Hennepin</strong> Avenue more attractive and pedestrian<br />
friendly. The Trust, working with the City of Minneapolis, solicited<br />
proposals to select artists who transformed non-descript metal utility<br />
boxes up and down the street into works of art based on a theme<br />
from Shakespeare.<br />

<strong>Engaging</strong> <strong>Our</strong> audiences in an<br />
Electronic Era<br />
The Trust continued to embrace many tools to engage<br />
audiences in an era that relies more on electronic and cyberbased<br />
communications and less on hard copy materials.<br />
Through online marketing, promotional emails and the<br />
monthly <strong>Hennepin</strong> <strong>Theatre</strong> Trust Insider newsletter, we seek to<br />
extend the conversation without a paper trail.<br />
• During 2007–08, nearly 4.5 million emails were delivered<br />
to members and tickets buyers.<br />
• The Trust’s online Insider newsletter, emailed monthly to<br />
more than 3500 people, continued its above industry<br />
standards readership rate.<br />
• The <strong>Hennepin</strong><strong>Theatre</strong><strong>District</strong>.org<br />
website averaged 250,025 hits per<br />
month in 2007–<br />
08, an increase<br />
of more than<br />
40% from the<br />
previous year.

APPRECIATING THE MOORES<br />
<strong>Hennepin</strong> <strong>Theatre</strong> Trust Members Fred and Ann Moore engage in a significant two-way relationship<br />
with the Trust. They enjoy attending performances and their level of commitment to Downtown and<br />
their investment in the future of young people has led them to become important supporters of Critical<br />
View. This student reviewer program gives high school students the chance to attend touring Broadway<br />
productions, write reviews and learn from experts including local theatre professionals.<br />

<strong>Engaging</strong> <strong>Our</strong> patrons –<br />
a two way street<br />
<strong>Hennepin</strong> <strong>Theatre</strong> Trust would not be able to accomplish<br />
as much as it does without the people who invest energy<br />
and resources. <strong>Engaging</strong> our patrons in the Trust’s work is<br />
an important two-way endeavor. This past year, we made<br />
significant gains in achieving our development goals with a<br />
consistently high 85% donor retention rate, growth in new<br />
Broadway season subscriptions and several new corporate<br />
relationships.<br />
10<br />
Q. There are many organizations seeking donations, why did you<br />
choose to support <strong>Hennepin</strong> <strong>Theatre</strong> Trust and Critical View in particular?<br />
A. As Downtown residents, we view the theatres as “just down the<br />
street treasures” and know the value they add to our community.<br />
We’ve always enjoyed ourselves at the theatres and feel strongly<br />
about the need to support them. We are very interested in educational<br />
opportunities for young people and know Critical View provides students<br />
with arts experiences they might not otherwise have, like seeing<br />
Broadway shows and interacting with local theatre critics. We met<br />
some of them before Sweeney Todd last season and could tell they were<br />
really interested in the show. They had studied the London time period,<br />
seen the movie and read about the stage version.<br />
Q. How do you think the Trust’s programming impacts our community?<br />
A. The depth of programming was a surprise to us. It’s so much more<br />
than just Broadway! We love how the different shows draw such a<br />
variety of audiences to downtown Minneapolis and <strong>Hennepin</strong> Avenue<br />
and seeing people experience the restored theatres for the first time<br />
is always a delight. It’s great to see so much traffic in the heart<br />
of the city and know the theatres have a significant investment in<br />
downtown entertainment.<br />
Q. What’s your favorite show you’ve seen at the Trust’s State,<br />
Orpheum and Pantages <strong>Theatre</strong>s?<br />
A. A mix of shows from the past few years comes to mind because<br />
they were all wonderful and different in their own way. Of course,<br />
Wicked and Lion King were the big blockbusters but we thought Doubt<br />
was a dramatic and moral stunner. The shows have created some<br />
wonderful memories. We thought the production of Sweeney Todd at<br />
the State <strong>Theatre</strong> was better than the one we saw in New York!<br />
Q. How have you introduced friends and family members to the Trust?<br />
A. By taking them to a performance! It’s important to let people<br />
know ticket prices alone are not sufficient to maintain these great<br />
theatres and additional support is needed to sustain the high quality<br />
of entertainment the Trust presents. Preserving these theatres did not<br />
happen and will not happen without the concerted support of a group<br />
of dedicated people.
2007–08 FinanCial HigHligHts<br />
2007–08 Financial Overview<br />
This past year was full of successes made possible by our supporters’ engagement with <strong>Hennepin</strong> <strong>Theatre</strong> Trust. We thank you for making<br />
our work this year possible.<br />
When i contribute to the Trust, where do<br />
my dollars go?<br />
Why does the Trust ask for your support? Wasn’t Disney’s<br />
The Lion King enough to fill the Trust’s bank account for a<br />
good, long time? In a word, ‘no.’ Extravagant shows are<br />
expensive to present and can be risky when costs exceed the<br />
proceeds. Ticket sales from Broadway touring productions<br />
do not cover the Trust’s costs to carry out its year-long,<br />
multi-faceted mission. For nearly every show we bring to<br />
our stages, the Trust must cover the operating expenses<br />
of the theatres, as well as the “guarantee” promised to an<br />
artist or show producer in addition to labor, musicians,<br />
security and insurance. So The Lion King’s ticket sales alone,<br />
for example, didn’t fully support the Trust’s 2007–08<br />
educational programming, theatre preservation work or other<br />
basic costs. This is why we ask for and very much appreciate<br />
your contributions.<br />
Did you know?<br />
• It costs $59 for each student to<br />
participate in the Trust’s annual<br />
SpotLight Musical <strong>Theatre</strong> Program<br />
and there were approximately<br />
2,500 students in 2007–08?<br />
• A single LED light in the Pantages<br />
marquee costs $25 to replace<br />
(and there are 1,000s of them)!<br />
• The maintenance cost for a<br />
single theatre seat is $150 per<br />
year—and the Trust’s theatres<br />

“We feel privileged to have the opportunity to<br />
support <strong>Hennepin</strong> <strong>Theatre</strong> Trust in its efforts to<br />
bring varied entertainment to the Twin Cities<br />
area and for its work encouraging high school<br />
students in theatrical arts.”
Greg and Sally Booth<br />
“We continue to support the Trust each year because to us, live<br />
theater is life, and we want as many folks as possible, especially<br />
young people, to be exposed to it. We were fortunate to have<br />
families that introduced us early to live productions and feel that<br />
theater has greatly enhanced our lives.”<br />

“As a child, I vividly remember my first live theater production ... the stage came to life with color, music,<br />
movement, words and personalities. My mother recalls my face lighting up as I was transformed to a<br />
different time and place. I fell in love with it ALL and that love has followed me into my adult life. Today, I<br />
smile as I watch new faces discover what I felt. The experience of theater is something to treasure and hold<br />
close to your heart whenever the need arises.”<br />
